Chelsea goalkeeper Jamal Blackman played for both Sheffield United and Leeds United on loan, and the former England Under-19 international has taken to Twitter to share an image of him watching the derby between the two Yorkshire sides.

United and Leeds faced each other at Bramall Lane in the Championship on Saturday afternoon.

It was a good and entertaining game which was decided by a late goal from Leeds attacking midfielder Pablo Hernandez.

Blackman spent the 2017-18 campaign on loan at the Blades from Premier League club Chelsea.

The 25-year-old goalkeeper – who earns £8000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – joined Leeds on loan from the Blues in the summer transfer window.

The Englishman started the season as the second-choice goalkeeper being Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Blackman suffered a broken tibia in his leg while playing for the Leeds Under-23 side last month and has returned to Chelsea, cutting short his loan spell at Elland Road.

The win against United means that Leeds are now at the top of the Championship table.
